Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
Instructions
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
Once the butter is melted, add the semi-sweet chocolate chips and whisk until fully melted and smooth.
Sift in the cocoa powder to prevent clumps, and whisk it into the mixture until completely incorporated.
Add the granulated sugar, heavy cream, and light corn syrup to the saucepan. Increase the heat to medium and whisk constantly.
Continue to cook the mixture, whisking frequently, until it begins to bubble. Lower the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook for 5 minutes, whisking occasionally.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
Let the sauce cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. It will thicken as it cools.
Serve warm over your favorite dessert or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Reheat gently before serving.
